Answer:

10 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Road sign shadow (Rs) = 4 feets

Height of man (Hm) = 6

Man shadow (Ms) = 2.4 feets

Height of road sign (Hr) = x

Height of road sign / shadow of road sign = height of man / shadow of man

Hr/Rs = Hm / Ms

x / 4 = 6 / 2.4

Cross multiply :

4*6 = 2.4*x

24 = 2.4x

x = 24 / 2.4

x = 10 feets

Hence, height of road sign = 10 feets

Why is the remainder always less than the divisor
anastassius [24]
The remainder is always less than the divisor because if the remainder was more than the divisor then you would have a totally different answer. If the remainder was more than the divisor than you know your answers wrong.

Match the key aspect of a function's graph with its meaning
Aliun [14]

Answer:

y- intercept --> Location on graph where input is zero

f(x) < 0         --> Intervals of the domain where the graph is below the x-axis

x- intercept --> Location on graph where output is zero

f(x) > 0         --> Intervals of the domain where the graph is above the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Y-intercept: The y-intercept is equivalent to the point where x= 0. 'x' is the input variable in an equation, therefore the y-intercept is where the input, or x, is equal to 0.

f(x) <0: Notice the 'lesser than' sign. This means that the value of f(x), or 'y', is less than 0. This means that this area consists of intervals of the domain below the x-axis.

X-intercept: The x-intercept is the location of the graph where y= 0, or the output is equal to 0.

f(x) >0: In this, there is a 'greater than' sign. This means that f(x), or 'y', is greater than 0. Therefore, this consists of intervals of the domain above the x-axis.
